Gold closed in Nevv To i rix last Saturday
at 113 i.
Our neighbor across the way says that
Mr. Ross " is a candidate withoutitrengtb."
Mr. Reii4 Sherwood don't thinkjso. Just
tk him how it is, yoursk Mr. Democrat!
I •
The De rat has heard that " some ob
scure m by the name of Ross" has been
nominate for Congreas. Sherwood won't
thank b ' organ for that word when that
" obscu,r man by the name of *Ross" whips
him out of his boots next month, as he sure
ly will. •
'f i lm Democrat says that, Mr. Sherwood's
" phst record is a sere g»arantee. of his fu
ture political conduct." There is no doubt,
of it; and that is the reason whY the people
don't propose to let lain go back to Con
gress. That past:reeord is just what's 1.4 e
matter with Henry. .

It Hon. Henry SheriVood's past reeordiis
a surcguaranlee of his future political eon
dticrt—and his :3 upporteni ti(iptit it is—hots• is
he to stand on the Cincinnati Platform?—
Has lie been supporting Republican princi
ples in the present Congress?
_,-
Attend to the Registry. B t a few mbre
days retnain in which 10 - attet d to this im
portant matter: After this week it will' be
too late. Let every voter see that his Own
name is dub - registered, and then look after
his neighbors'. ,It is a matter involving lit
tle trouble, if looked after in time; but it is
of the first importance that it should be at
tended to /wit.
Last• June Hon. Henry ,Sherwood voted
in CopgresS square against equal civil rights.
Last July he told us he stood square on the
CincinnatfPlaticiriti. Litst l week his organ
told us his past record was sure guarantee
of his futtu c , cowl it rt, - Last Thursday Hen
ry Sherwood told us he proud of Buck
alew's record, and everybody knows what
that means. Now, whom are we to believe?
Ffenry Sherwood in June and Septembsk, i r
fleqy Sherwood in July?. As. the to
stands, it's three to one that the orerr s
?right.
pon. Henry Oherwood told the people
last Thursday night that as a citizen of
Pennsylvania he was proud of the record of
Charles B. Bnekalew. That was only fair
in Mr. Sherwood, for lie has copied that
record as closely as possible. Buckalew vo
ted in the Senate against the equal pay of
the colored troops, and Sherwood voted in
the House against. the equal civil rights of
the colored eitizen.s. Buckalew voted against
the repeal of the fugitive slafe Inv, , and
Sherwood voted against the and
binding force of the laws for the enforce
ment of the late amendments to
,the
lotion. They are a precious pair of piu
sans, as near alike as twin cherries. \V
shall see whether the citizens of Tioga coun
ty are proud of either of their records.
Some More of Mr. Sherwood's Votes
We spoke last week of Mr. Slerwood'
Notes on the Stevenson resoluti n and o ,
the supplementary' evil rights bill passed h l
the Senate and deflated by the lemoera
in the House, slaiwing that on I oth thm;
measures the member froM th s disfri
stood shoulder to shoulder Niih the bittere i !
Democrats in opposing and defeating ei
'rights and Republican principles. Of coursp
that exposition of Mr. Sherwood's action
Congress surprised 'nobody ,who was ac-
quainted with his political sentiments during
the war. He was well known to all his old
neighbors here as a bitter and persistent
partisan of the cause of the South; he was
elected to Congress (by accident) as a Dem-*
ocrat ; he has voted in CongresS'as . a Demo
crat, and no doubt he will continue so to
vote to the cud of his brief political career.
But he now claims to be one of the con
verted politicians, and says he stands square
ly on the Cincinnati Platform of Republi
can principles. At a time when the most
vital interests of his country prompted Sin
cere patriots to sustain those principles,
Ilenry Sherwood remained a Democrat of
the Democrats and opposed them. At a
time when he had a chance to uphold them,
by his votes in Congresq, be still remained
partisan, even down to the seventh of last
June, and voted against them. But now,
when he needs votes to return him to the
Democratic side of the Rouse, he suddenly
announces that he has met with a change of
heart, and is a genuine convert to the doc
trine's maid down at Cincinnati. - But in spite
of his professions, we predict that after the
election he will be as bitter a Democrat as
he was during the war—and (hat is saying
a great deal—and that when he returns to.
Washington next winter to complete his
single term he Will work and vote with Cox,
Voorhees, Wood, Brooks, and the rest of
the Democratic crew just as he did during
the last session.
That it may be fully understood justhow
he did stand on the political questiOns of
the day, we propose now to call attention to
a few more votes cast by him on the subject
of civil rights.
On the 19th day of February last Mr.
Frye, at the request of Mr. Hooper, intro
duced in the House, during the; morning
hour, under the call for resolutions, a bill
known.as 'the supplemental civil rights hill.
It provided that no citizen should, " by'rea
son of race, color, or previous condition of
servitude be excepted or excluded from the
full and equal enjoyMent of any accommo
dation, advantage, facility, or privilege fur
nished by inn-keepers; by common-carriers,
whether on land crater; by licensed own
ers, managers, or le sees of theaters or oth
er places of public amusement; by trustees,
commissioners, , superintendents, teachers,
and other officers of common schools and
other public institutions of learning, the
same being supported by moneys derived
from general taxation, or authorized by
law; by trustees and officers of cemetery
associations and benevolent institittions in
corporated by national. or State authority."
But private schools, cemeteries, and institu
tions of learning established exclusively for
white or colortld persons, and maintained
by voluntary contributi6nS, were excepted
from the operation of the law. The bill
further provided ." that no citizen possess
ing all other qualifications which sire or may
he prescribed by. law, shall be disqualified
t(tr service as juror in any court, national'or
state, by reason of race, color, or 'previous
condition of - serVitude," and it annulled and
repealed " every discrimination against any
citizen on account of color by the use of
the word `white' in any law, statute, ordi
nance, or regulation." ' r
Mr. Eldredge at once moved to reject the
lull, and on that motion the yeas were 89
and the nays 118, Mr. Sherwood being one
of the 89 Democrats who voted to kill t
hill Every Monday morning after that.
time the bill came up in order, but no vote
n•as reached, the Democrats interposing dil
atory motions to consume the morninghour.
But our member did not get hithself on rec
ord again until the '2sth of March, when
Mr. Elliott offered a resolution that the
rules lie suspended so as t 9 bring the bill
before the House for consideration on the
10th orA.pril. In view of the tactics, of
the Democracy, this seemed to be the nst,
way_to bring it to a vote. The assent-o
two-thirds of the Itouse was required to
pass Mr. Elliott's resolution, and it was de
feated, the yeas being 98 and the nays 80.—
Every man saying nay was a Democrat, and
Henry Sherwood was one of those who voted not
to consider the 2771,
The next Monday morning, April Ist, the
bill being before the House; Mr. Niblack
moved to lay. it on the table, 'and on that
motion Henry Sherwood voted-yes. This
was the third time he had voted to defeat
the bill, but it was not
,the last kime. The
next Monday morning he got another ehande
at it. On that day it was ordered to be en
grossed and read a third tame, and. Mr.
. •
Sherwood again Voted against - equid
rights, as he had Ottd habit of 'doing every:
Monday about that -lime. But perlitipS the
„genii-mint thinksi.himself:excusabla for the
tour votes we have detailed. The light of
the Cincinnati Convention had not yet
dawned upon an wiald: - Mr.
Sherwood did not then stand on, the, `',1411)-
t
eral" Platform, fOr excellent reason that'
it was not yet built. -He was still an unre
pentant, unregerferate Pentocrat. of the old
school, and nobody had any right to expeet
hintto vote in favor of.,the cliyit rights of
the colort;i1 man. Bat the Cincinnati
,Con
ventton met on theist of 11613• ; and laid ilow'n
the platforin upon Which Mr. Sherwood is
now so proud to stand. We ore bound to
believe that he is converted, for he tells us
so; but we feat he does not. quite under
stand just what the word means. He is no
doubt just now very sorry for his past po:.
littial sins, hut he don't , fdlow that he has
resolved to sin no 'more. At. anY rate, he
continued in his sins as late as on the uilth
of May, when he voted for the fifth time
against the 'civil rights bill. That ended
hat chapter. . .
We have already shown how this model
,representative of a Republican district yo•
ted t‘Vice on the 'tarot June id defeat the
civil rights bill passed by the Senate, and ,
we have now detailed the five votes cast by
him to defeat the House bill. He voted on
the question every time he got a chance,
and every time against equal civil rights.—
And yet he has the assurance to ask 0)6 peo
ple of the Eighte - enth District to return hint
to Congress! It would be just as sensible
for them to . 9lect James Brooks; or Fernau
' do. Wood, or Dan Voorhees. Mt% .Sherwpod
. .
is not so well known and probably not sO
able as either of those men; i but has',
shown himself as bitter n partisan as , i the
worst of• them, mid. to the'extent of his abil
ity he is as efficient a champion of the'BOur
bon Democracy as any man can be.
How Mr.SherWood Works for the People.
Mr. Henry Sherwood plumes himself con
siderably on his' care . df "the business inter
ests of the people of this region. We de
sire to call public attention to a few facts
already well known to many of .our readers,
which will show just how careful he has
been' of the material welfare of the "dear
people" of this county in one instance where
he had it in his power to advance or injure
it. ,
It is well knoWn that Mr. Sherwood has
been President of the Wellsboro and Law
renceville Railroad Company, and that he
has been and is now a leading legal 'adviser
of that Company. He has frequently as
serted the fact, and it is no doubt true, that
his influence with the management of the
road has been very great, and that the ac
tion of the Company has been determined
by his advice in some matters of great im
porttince.
It is also probably well known to all the
owners of hemlock bark along . the line of
the roacl that the Company have entered in
to,an agreement that they would not trans
port hemlock bark, or the extract Of hem
lock bark, on their road for any person, or
that they would, by the imposition of a high
rate of freight, practically prohibit the ship
ment of, such bark or its extract over their
road.
It is perhaps not so well known, but it is
no less true, that this embargo on bark was
established by the advice of Henry Sher,
wood ; that the Company were reluctant to
enter into such an agreement, and hesitated
to Ao so, but that Henry Sherwood advised
them that such an arrangement was desira
ble:
The effect of that policy must be evident
to every man who has a cord of hemlock
bark to sell. It simply keeps him out of
the general market, and shuts him up to the
very limited one afforded by the local' tan
neries. It not only kepi— th
whit bark is sold, but it absolutely prevents
the:-sale at any price of a very large amount ,
of the hark annually produced in the coun-,
ty. It'is estimated that there are now thou
sands of Cords of hemlock bark belonging
to landowners iu the county, which they
cannot sell at any price, , because there is no
market here for it, and under the advice of
tienrY Sherwood the railrotid will not trans'
port . it to any other. We, understand that
dealers have been anxious to buy this bark
at five dollars per cord; but they could nor,
because Henry Sherwood thought they, sho'd
not be allowed to transport it. So here it
is, rotting on the hands of the producers
who need the money, while tanners else
where peed the bark:
" To Itenekthe few : wealthy, owners of our
large tanneries, Mr. Sherwood thinks it is
right to force the sale of a small part of the
bark of the county at less than the market
Price, and cause the complete loss of the
rest of it. What do our, lumbermen and
bark owners think of it? •

Sept. '7, 18'72.
To Me Editor of Ow Albany Evening Journal:
I have never voted any ticket in my life
but the Democratic. Whenever a member
of my party was nominated upon a platform
of principles I have always voted for him
and worked for him at the polls. My fath
er, the late Chancellor Walworth, a leader
in the party, and my grandfather, an officer
of the American Revolution, voted always
the Democratic ticket, from a firm convic
tion that the principles upheld -by their par
ty were conducive to the best interests of
the State and nation. But I assure you they
were never called upon to indorse an utter
abandonment of party and of principle, as
I and lily-fellow Democrats of the old Jef
fersonian school are called upon to do this
fall by the action of the Baltimore - Conven
tion. We are required under the party
whip to abandon the Democratic organiza
tion and vote for tv man who has been the
leading spirit in every fanaticism of the last
twenty years, the man who has not been our
honest and honorable opponent, but our vil
lifier. This man, this advocate of Fourier
ism, free-love, andi license to break every
conservative principle in society which good
citizens love, has now the immeasurable im
pudence to solicit our votes. I will never
vote for him. I know hundreds of old
fashitmed Democrat who will not vote for
him.
I, and hundreds of Democrats in sympa
thy with my position in the nineteenth ward
of this city, looked to the upright; manly,
consistent and, reliable Charles O'Conor as
our standard bearer, to whom we could ral
ly and save our party and our honor as men.
That great man, the profound jurist, the
unflinching citizen in, all kintea when real
character
.is demanded, . declines, a_ nomina
tion. We have but one ehoide left to us.--
We believe that in the.finger of the soldier,
Grant, is more honor, more reliability, more
principle than in the entire body,of Gree
ley. We accept and shall vote .for. General
'Grant as the best and most reliable man for
the Presidency. The Baltimore:CAl:mention
having repudiated party and principle, we
are emancipated, for the time Wingst least,
from'the slavery of party, andAshitil vote
from • sincere conviction that Gen. .drant is
the truest and best man. Rely upon it, Mr.
Editor, that Democrats born and bred, men
- *ha dux be trusted in the ' dark hour, are
acting froth a sense of right and propriety
when they set.the seal of condemnation up
on such infamous transactions as the .Balti
more fraud. I shall vote for Gen. Grant,
and shall 'work at the polls for him. We
can't all be sold like - sheep to a man of no
principle like Rerace Greeley.: Qii the day
of election it will be found that in thl city,
Americaps, Irishmen, and Germans, who
have been true to the!Democratic party as
Spartans were trueinre marching shoulder
to shoulder in solid column under the lead- .
ership of the soldier President. This is tbe
best exposition„ of principle that we can
mare. Malian= Wiamoarn.
_ • ' ANOTHER nEubeuvrisrswts. •
Mr." George J. Flint, an old Oneida coun
ty Democrat, who has been ten times "a
Democratic candidate fol. Supervisor, and
also a candidate for the AsSeiribly, has writ
ten a letter withdrawing hiS name front a'
'call for a meeting to ors nize a Greeley
Club. He says: "Mr. Gree ey was nomina
ted,'as I supposed at•tbeti e, bra body of
rfformers, who .were anxio s to introduce
some very much needed re orms in the sev
eral departments of dui 'Government; and
myself, in common with a great many oth
ers, were willing to support, him on that ba
sis. But recent • developMents have dm
vinced me that the real and . moving power
' behind the throne' of this new departure
is'the corrupt and damning influence of the
Tammany Bing of New Mork ;city: Hav
ing always opposed and fought that organi
zation in the ranks of the tarty, and having
some personal ' knowledgep of . the secret
workings of.its machinery 'I was startled to
think of the danger to th ~ counttly. should
Mr. Greeley be elected, Hawing that he
would be as wax in .the ands of skillful
and unprincipled men. This conviction,
coupled with the infamous and shameful
bid . of Mr. Greeley at Pinfamous
,Me., and
the life, history and antecedents of his per
sonal followers and bticers, convince me
that' it is the duty of every honest man, who
has the welfare of his country and its insti
tutions at heart, to suppott Grant and Wil
son." 1
One of the Army of the Tennessee takes ,
occasion to produce, thrc ugh the columns'
of the Cincinnati Gazette, some of the war
correspondence that is su 3posed to have left
a rankling wound in the breast of General
Banks, which could be relieved only by de
sertion from the Chief .Wlio bad tailed to
appreciate him, for the Irvice, of one with
whom he had - no old sco es to 'settle. We
copy a portion of this correspondence. It
tells the old story of GenJ Banks's disastrous
failure as a military mania ,

Maj. Gen. H. W. Hall ck, Chief of Staff:
You can see from Gem ayman's dispatch
to me something of Ge . Banks's disaster.
I have been satisfied for the last nine months
that to keep Gee. Banks in command was
to neutralizes large force and to support., it
'
most-expensively. , I -
Although I do not insist on it, I think the
best interests of the service demand that
Gen. Reynolds should be placed in com

instructions to see the gunboats safely out
of Red river as soon as possible, and then
return all the troops rapidly to where they
